Decentralized Energy Systems - Concept, Planning and Modeling

A comprehensive overview of the subject, Decentralized Energy Systems describes a systematic and integrated approach for minimizing fossil fuel dependence, use, cost of production, and environmental impact. Discussing the engineering, economical benefits, politics, and policies involved in establishing these systems, author G. Zahedi examines smaller, localized implementation of new energy technologies, including renewable energy, combined heat and power (CHP), and clean coal technologies that are emerging. This valuable reference for chemical, bioprocess, civil, electrical, and environmental engineers also includes environmental benefits and policies surrounding decentralized energy, as well as modeling techniques.
